Interesting to say the least- figured somebody here might have seen one and could shed a little more light on one. Look's like it would be a PITA to fix if it ever got wacked if you ask me :eek: :eek:

Andy, one of our club members has one I believe he bought off of e-bay, it's fast and you would not want to get hit be it as it would certainly destroy any boat it tangeled with.

We had one at our race one year . He was hit by another boat and opened up the radio box . He went 12 ft. under to the bottom of the pond.
 
john urbowitz was the builder of those riggers, a guy who would think outside the box. he once built a rigger for a new saw record that was just a frame- no skins, very fast but no flotation, if it got off plane it would sink
 
A freind of mine Lou now owns that rigger. Definitely a piece of work. It is just sitting. One day I might ask about letting me try setting it up and running it again.

Thanks Daniel
